Like the sound of that. Any chance of some close up picks?

How hard was it getting all bends even on both sides?

Thanks

Like it. Sorta similar to what i want. The pics will come in handy to show the chap whose will be making it. Only difference i'll be going for is a in-built roll bar on the back of the cab mounted to the chassis.

Cheers for that
